There is a speech that was said by an awesome man and football coach, and that is, “I am somebody, I will strive, I will persevere, and I will win, because I am somebody.” That was said at all the high school assemblies. That was said by Coach Jim Prince. Since its breast cancer awareness month, I believe that this speech given by Coach Prince will be a great motivation for all who have breast cancer. The reason is because when my brother Kyle Cregar had cancer, listening to Coach Prince’s ” I am Somebody!” Speech helped him helped him strive, persevere, and win by beating the cancer because Kyle believed he was somebody and he wanted to win the battle with his cancer. Because my brother beat his cancer I’m thankful everyday to have him around, no matter how much we fight, I still love him and he is still my hero…So for anyone dealing with a loved one with breast cancer or is the one fighting breast cancer, just say to yourself, “I am somebody, I will strive, I will persevere, and I will win, because I am somebody…” and that will give you the strength and confidence to beat breast cancer because I know it helped my brother beat his cancer…
